Yesterday, I had the honor of being sworn in to serve on the Longwood University Board of Visitors.
The most meaningful part of the day wasn't the appointment itself. It was having my mother and both of my sons there to witness it.
I asked my oldest son to hold the Bible as I took the oath because I wanted him to see what service, leadership, and responsibility look like in action. Throughout my career, he has had a front-row seat to my journey, and I hope moments like this remind him that leadership is about serving something greater than yourself.
As I begin this new chapter in higher education governance, I do so with gratitude and a commitment to the students and communities we serve.
Some lessons are taught. Others are witnessed.
